The applicant is proposing expanding the existing zoning classification conditions of a Light Industry Conditional District (CD-LI), increasing the use in a previously approved case for this parcel on March 21, 2022. This remains a conditional zoning request. Applicant Information Owner of Record: Applicant: Name: IS Lillington 401 LLC Name: John and Macon Auton Address: 110 Wild Winds Drive Address: 110 Wild Winds Drive City/State/Zip: Coats, NC 27521-9774 City/State/Zip: Coats, NC 27521 Property Description PIN(s): 0651-21-1672.000 Acreage: 18.40 Address/SR No.: US 401 N Vicinity Map Physical Characteristics and Existing Land Uses: Site Description: The Site is currently zoned for a Light Industry Conditional District. The applicant’s intent is to rezone the property to expand upon the previously approved zoning conditions to better suit future uses. This site was previously approved by the Planning Board on March 21, 2022, to rezone the property to Conditional District Light Industry (CD-LI) for a self-storage unit. The new proposal includes the addition of a car care center and a potential office to the existing pre-approved site plans. Previously Approved Uses and Conditions: The proposed use for this property, approved on March 21, 2022, was for Warehouse & Storage (Indoor & Outdoor). The original conditions state the following: 1. No outdoor vehicular storage shall be permitted between the right of way of US 401 and a perimeter building 2. Warehouse & Storage Uses shall be permitted to park at rate of 1 space per 5,000 gross square footage of storage area Current Proposal: The current proposed use for this property still includes Warehouse & Storage (Indoor & Outdoor). However, the applicant is now proposing the addition of adding a car care center to the property with room for a potential office suite. While the use of the property has expanded, the conditions approved on March 21, 2022, remain the same, with no additional conditions proposed by the applicant. For the purposes of the rezoning before you today, the conditions remain as aforementioned: 1. No outdoor vehicular storage shall be permitted between the right of way of US 401 and a perimeter building 2. Warehouse & Storage Uses shall be permitted to park at rate of 1 space per 5,000 gross square footage of storage area Current Zoning: Light Industry (LI): Future Town Land Use Classification: The Future Land Use Plan identifies this area as a Neighborhood Residential District • However, it is important to note that the majority of adjacent parcels are currently zoned as IND, according to Harnett County’s Zoning Classifications, making the proposed use largely in-line with surrounding land use classifications. SITE Services Available Water: Sewer: Other: ☐ Public (Town Of Lillington) ☐ Public (Town of Lillington) ☒ Public (Harnett County) ☒ Private (Septic) ☐ Private (Well) ☐ Other (Unverified) ☐ Other: (Unverified) Other: N/A Staff Evaluation: Recommended Approval The impact to the adjacent property owners and the surrounding community is reasonable, and the benefits of the Zoning Assignment outweigh any potential inconvenience or harm to the community: REASONING: The requested zoning assignment to Conditional District Light Industrial (CD-LI), with the proposed new uses and existing conditions Does not have a negative impact on the community as the uses described in this district are similar or the same in nature to existing uses within proximity to the project area. The requested zoning assignment is compatible with the existing Land Use Classification: REASONING: While the requested zoning assignment differs slightly from the intended use of Neighborhood Residential development, the proposed use is aligned with surrounding land use classifications and will not cause disproportionate disruption to surrounding areas. It is staff’s opinion that the requested zoning class Is Compatible with the Town’s current Land Use Plan, as the proposed land uses are small-scale commercial uses. The proposal does enhance or maintain the public health, safety and general welfare: REASONING: With the proposed uses on-site, and pursuant to all established Town regulations and plans, the requested rezoning to Conditional District Light Industrial (CD-LI) Would Maintain or Enhance the public health, safety, and general welfare.
